Before you begin
There's a degree of randomness which gets you a sequence of random stories that always leads to failure, like a 'bad seed' - I do not understand exactly how that works.

Things to know about the 'random stories' portion:
  • If you get the "Marius Tressym" story, you can rest easy knowing that you have a good seed. Pick the correct answers and the good ending is guaranteed.

  • If you get too many random stories instead, you might have a bad seed, and lose.

  • If you encounter Oeilvert's bosses a second time (first encounter being "Paxton"), you will probably lose, but not always - it seems to depend on how much HP you've got at that point, which in turn depends on how many random stories you've been dealt on your seed. Pick "I will take that into consideration" and pray.

I've included video evidence of a complete run in case anyone finds it useful.
Correct answers
In order to get to the good ending, pick exactly the answers below:

Beginning
"Who's your model for Anietta?"
"Pardon me, but I am in a hurry."
"That is a stupid question." (It doesn't matter, pick the other options if you want to see HP values)


Random stories
Each of the six story titles below will show up in random order, pick the correct answers:

The Sapphire Chapel
"Wait until you've finished before you start bragging."

Rosetti and the Swine
"Follow the set of prints leading east"
"How much more of this must I endure?"

Matoya's Cave
"You will die before you finish it."

Paxton
"Are you here to make fun of me?"

World of Beasts
"It seems boring."
"-I- do not understand?"

A Glimpse into the Mendoza Dynasty
"I guess you want to ruin your life."


Linear part (final):
Marius Tressym
"You're writing about Duchamp."
"Where did you learn that name?"
End Pablo.
"Was I a bit too intense?"

The One-Legged Poet
"Finish your novel."
"Here, take this. It's not much, but..."

Bar de l'oiseau
"Are you planning to ever finish your novel?"
1. Fall asleep

National Archives
Tell him a little bit and watch his reaction
"Why not revisit where you washed up?"

The Hare and the Sea
"Let's visit the place you were washed up."

La Clef de la Révolution
"My code name was Oeilvert."
"How does the poet's story end?"

@Supimpa Thanks, you're the best! What an odd little mini-game. There are more interactive books in the game too that I didn't get far into XD

@Neal In my experience picking "..." always got me stabbed.

Picking the other option "I will take that into consideration" got me stabbed more often than not, but was successful sometimes - I believe this one depends on the HP value at that point.

I've updated the guide with some considerations regarding random 'bad seeds' and a video of the complete run leading to the good ending.

Can you update this guide? I followed it but still failed and didn't get to the second half. I also followed the previous comment and that didn't work either. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong at this point.

There's one missing that can happen near the beginning of the final linear part called "Oeilvert":

"I will take that into consideration"
"..."

I didnt get to try the second answer as it didnt pop up again but it was the only other option i didnt try
